Despite the common misconceptions, Islam is a way of life that promotes peace, humility and happiness. I hope that shows through my blog :)

Ibn ´Atā Allāh (via pearlsfromthepath)

No man shall be raised up except in that condition in which he died, and no man will die except in accord with how he has lived.

Imām al Ghazālī (via pearlsfromthepath)

[pearlsfromthepath-deactivated20]

In the creation of the heavens and the earth; in the alternation of night and day; in the sailing of ships through the ocean for profit of humankind; in the rain that God sends down from the skies, and the life which He then gives to the earth after it had been lifeless; in the beasts of all kind that He scatters through the earth; in the change of the winds, and the clouds that run their appointed courses between the sky and the earth; [here] indeed are signs for a people who are wise

Sūrat al-Baqarah, verse 164 (via pearlsfromthepath)

No human being has ever been left unguarded.

Surat at-Tāriq, verse 4 (via pearlsfromthepath)

[pearlsfromthepath-deactivated20]

The Qur'ān began by ordering us to read. A few chapters later, it swore by the pen. Thus, in its infancy, the Qur'ān taught the importance of literacy.

[pearlsfromthepath-deactivated20]

انك لا تهدي من احببت ولكن الله يهدي من يشاء وهو اعلم بالمهتدين You will not be able to guide [towards faith] everyone whom you love; but God guides those whom He will, and He knows best those who receive guidance. 

— Qur’ān 28:56

[arab-quotes]

لا ظلام كالجهل No darkness like ignorance

(Arabic proverb)

[franksonnetti-deactivated201512]

Sufyan ibn ‘Uyaynah (rahimahullah) says: “In the sight of Allah, backbiting is worse than adultery and consuming alcohol because adultery and consuming alcohol is between you and Allah, if you repent, Allah will forgive you. However backbiting is never forgiven until the person you spoke against forgives you”.

[Shu'b al-Iman li'l Imam al-Bayhaqi]

Note: Backbiting is never forgiven until the person you spoke against forgives you because one of the conditions of ones repentance being accepted is that you go back and correct the wrong that you did or return the right of the one whose right you usurped if it is possible.
